Dang! Manuel and I are sorry we missed last night! Heard Tonga Tom finally brought his tripod and everything! Looks like we missed out the return of Bullet, Sooner, Dean and Claudia!
Plus is that A-Frame lurking about in the background?
And pink bunny peeps!
See you all next week, though!

woohoo! big fun at the rumpus room! i had a great time hanging out wed night. i made some new friends like tyler, murph, dean & claudia, tom & sherry, kent, etc, etc, and got to catch up with old friends like kirby, polly, tikig, mel, grog, hiphipahula, jim. it's only the second time i've hung out with sooner, but believe me, it's been a memorable event both times! mahalo braddah!
and a special shout out to grog for inviting me down and giving me a rock at the cave. i had a blast and hope i've earned a return visit some time.
kirby, it was really great hanging for a few hours on saturday. polly, thanks for bringing us lunch too!
the only thing as good as norcal ohana is socal ohana. thanks gang, i can't wait to do it again.

Kirby, Polly and Tyler always host a great evening at the Rumpus Room, and last Wednesday was no exception (Thanks to the Fleming family and a special nod to Kelly 'Hiphipahula' for the drinks ) Besides the usual cast of characters firmly entrenched at the Rumpus Room every Wednesday evening, I was stoked that Kingstiedye himself made the pilgrimage south because I brought a surprise especially for him.
Knowing that Kingstiedye is in-process of creating and decorating his home tiki "Pupule Hut", I thought it would be a kick to present a gift to him - a custom TikiG painting that somehow captures the spirit of Kingtiedye's love and passion for modern tiki-mugs.
Over the course of three evenings I painted "Kane's Magical Garden." This Hawaiian scene features Kane (left) during a moment of tiki-mug creation. On the right there are six of some of Kingstiedye's favorite modern tiki-mugs "rising" up out of the ground...Tiki Tony's Pupu, Crazy Al's Tiki King, Bosko's Cook Island Fisherman's God, Munktiki's Frankenskull, Tiki Diablo's Tambu and Gecko's Augie Colon. Also depicted is a sandy beach with ocean waves, active volcano in background, lush plants and mountains - all painted in various shades of blue, purple, green and Earth-tone.
So I presented Kingstiedye with my painting. I'm proud to say he loves it!
Thanks to Melekilikimaka for the next photo...a rare pic of the Filipino/Hawaiian contingent at Kirby's Rumpus Room.
That's all the pics I can share this time...the rest came up blurry!!
Take Care all and I'll see everyone again soon. Aloha! G

Sorry that we missed everyone last night at the Rumpus Room. Did anyone take pics?
We were unfortunately stuck at The Beachcomber Cafe in Crystal Cove for Sherriyaki's Mom's birthday...I know, so sad. I do recommend getting reservations on-line if you decide to go. BTW- I am wearing a Tikiyaki shirt (that's the red peaking through). Can't wait to see you all next week. We might even drag my Mom along since she will be in town.
Here's drink number one...
And, drinks number two...

Kelly's extra ingredients in her drinks may have a few side effects, but damn they sure are tasty!!

Oh, Grog. That might be your most haunting and mesmerizing photo yet.
I can't wait until I can make it to another Rumpus Room Mai Tai meeting... if for no other reason than to get my OWN second set of eyes.
